Product description
A beautiful Renaissance dagger by Windlass Steelcrafts, with silver-plated hilt and including scabbard. Perfect for Renaissance reenactment and collectors of medieval and Renaissance daggers. This dagger is an exact replica of an original shown in the book European Daggers by Bashford Dean. The original is made around 1590 and was worn on a belt for close combat on the battlefield. It was also a status symbol and was worn on the historical garments for self-defense. The semi-sharp blade is made of 1055 carbon steel with a hardness of 48-52 HRC and is delivered including scabbard. When blunted, the blade is perfect for Historical European Martial Arts.

This item is produced in limited quantities only. This means that every piece is unique. Sizes & finish may vary lightly from piece to piece.
Prevent rust and corrosion by oiling your weapons regularly. Remove rust easily with black sandpaper. Remove burrs with a whetstone. Make sure you have removed all burrs before using a battle-ready weapon, as they can cause wounds.
Maintenance & care
Just as with weaponry, you can care for your shoes and leatherware by applying a little Ballistol after cleaning. This prevents the leather from drying out.
Tip: How to adjust the finish of your armour and weaponry
Luxurious (polished)- polish the steel with metal polish or toothpaste. You can even give the item a mirror-like polish. Test on a small surface first!
Handmade (matte)- soak the steel in cola for 40 minutes to 20 hours. Check regularly and treat with black sandpaper.
Antique (patinated) leave the steel to rust for some time in a damp environment, preferably outside. Remove the red layer of rust, to reveal the corroded top layer.
Please note. After finishing the product yourself, the warranty and return right expire. Celtic WebMerchant is not responsible for the obtained result."
